Another good herbal tea :)

Allow me to share a good herbal tea recipe that is great for this weather, able to reduce skin problems like itch, swelling, acne and overall body detox. Grandma likes to boil this once a week for family health.

Ingredients:

Chrysanthemum 30 gram, Silk worm cloth ( 金蝉衣) 10gram, purple grass (紫草) 10 gram. You can get all the ingredients from chinese medical hall.

Method:

Put all ingredients in 2 litre of water and boil for 20mins. Add brown sugar to taste. Nice Nice. Do not be afraid of the silk worm. It is actually one of the expensive herbs and good for skin :)

Purple Grass is one of the most powerful Chinese herbal tea for detox. Those who are prone to acnes and pimples can drink this tea. POWERFUL. I am very allergy to herbal tea but this one doesn't give me any side effect such as rashes etc.
